Re: Trying to stay Sane

Cudo's for getting everything organised and ready for your Dads funeral @Anastasia . I know from personal experience last year, just how much is involved. Can you try to have an easy or restful day tomorrow I wonder?

Hope your Mum and your Boys are coping with everything. Also hoping your bf is being supportive.

You have had such a full on and highly emotive couple of weeks. You must be exhausted physically and emotionally. Auto pilot kicks in at times like this. But when the funeral is over and guests leave, you will likely collapse in a heap. So be prepared for that, and try to set up some professional support.

Sending love 💓

With you in spirit today @Anastasia as you farewell your Dad for the last time.

Please remember to put you in my pocket, because I would be there with you in person if it were possible.

Sending all my love, some comforting hugs and a shoulder to cry on.

Emelia 💓

Oh dear, yes of course it is @Anastasia . Today is not Monday. 😱 Where has my brain disappeared to? Must be switched off. Silly me. So sorry. I hope I didnt upset you?

Of course its tomorrow that you will be celebrating your dads life.

My sentiments remain the same, just carry them forward a day. 💖

Of course you didn't upset me @Emelia8

I am grateful you care enough to visit this thread. I must admit I had to check the calendar 😃 my head is everywhere too. You are grieving too your beautiful little girl, no apology is needed. Sending you love and an understanding hug my sister 💕

Re: Trying to stay Sane

Thanks for your understanding lovely @Anastasia . I really did think today was Monday.

I wrote yesterday on my thread (I think?) that I have been feeling very disoriented since losing Holly. I guess that doesn't help. Glad you told me that today is in fact NOT Monday, otherwise I might have been rocking up to the hospital tomorrow for admission a day early. 😘

I hope you get to spend a relatively quiet day today. You will need all your inner strength tomorrow.

Love you.

Emelia 💞
